Macaronis is visited annually by pro surfers, shapers, photographers, and frothers alike. There is no doubt Macaronis is one of the best waves on the planet and definitly the most consistent wave in all of the Mentawais. Macaronis is what most people come to surf but there are many other waves to choose from including some perfect alternatives for new to intermediate surfers.

Macaronis is a perfect, consistent left hand wave that works on all tides, big and small swells, and most wind conditions. There is a fun right hand beach break ideal for beginners out front and several intermediate reef breaks in the area, as well as a few serious reef breaks that serve up the deepest, longest, hair raising barrels you could imagine.

M a c a s l i V e t V - s U r F c a M

The resort has a live camera feed of the surf at Macaronis at all hours. all you have to do is flip on your in-room flat screen to get a closer look at the conditions and the crowd. The bar & Restaurant has Macas live Tv on throughout the day for monitoring the wave.

V i d e o G r a P h e r s

freelance surf videographers/photographers offer a videography and photography service to all guests. They provide the opportunity to get a professionally edited surf movie of your trip with a selection of photos to take home with you.

M a c a r o n i s

Macaronis, more commonly referred to as Macas, is a mechanical left-hander that has been described by many as being the most high performance wave in existence. In glassy or off-shore conditions 4 – 6 second barrels are manageable from the take off, while the inside section is a bit like a skaters half-pipe.

Macas is such a fun wave to surf even in onshore conditions, and is one of the few reef breaks in the world that continues to break well in all tides. Macas holds from 2 – 8 feet and technically doesn’t get any bigger than this; it just becomes more hollow and round.

G r e e n B U s h

green bush is one of the most amazing waves to surf in the southern Mentawai region. Macas may be the most predictable and most fun wave to surf, while greenbush has become known as one of the most mesmerizing and hair raising. The tube is very open and on the correct swell direction all three sections link up and it is very make-able. Regular visitors class this wave as a true gem; it works on a solid south swell, big high tides and east – north west winds.

M a c a s r i G h t

Macas Right becomes a quality wave in a thick south swell with northerly winds and a medium to high tide. It is not surfed or photographed often and basically just sits in the background of Macaronis being the main focal point that people come to visit.

Macas Right is often at its best when Macaronis is also firing, and therefore it often gets ignored. So if you would like to surf on your own whilst staying at Macaronis Resort or just with a couple of others, be different, and go surf the right on a North wind and south swell, you will be surprised with what you find.

M i n i M a c a s

Mini Macas breaks inside of Macaronis and is a perfect little left-hand peak ideal for those looking for something a little less heavy than Macaronis. The wave is best at high tide, and is generally empty. You can get dropped off at Mini Macas on the way out to Macaronins and easily flag down a boat ride in as well. You can even watch the waves up at Macaronis to get a feel for when the sets are about to arrive. Mini Macas is the most consistent when Macaronis is pumping.

s i l a B U l e F t

Silabu left can be surfed on all tides and is ideal for those seeking a mellower option with no crowds. It is an ideal wave for those just starting out surfing reef breaks, or for those who are looking to find their feet and build their confidence level.

Silabu is more protected from southerly wind than Macas and can remain off-shore in mornings for another hour or so if southerly winds are expected.

B a t c a V e

another option for those seeking a long mellow, uncrowded right hand wave is the bat Cave. This wave breaks for a few hundred meters down the edge of a tiny deserted island that is also a great spot to have a swim or do some snorkeling.

bat Cave picks up a lot of swell, especially if there is a bit of westerly direction in it. The wave occasionally dishes up a little barrel and offers long racy walls, but generally it is a point break with sections; definitely need some paddling fitness when it gets bigger.

w a V e s

r a G s r i G h t

Rags Right is a non-stop tube from start to finish. at low tide forget it, unless you choose to surf the outside section, which can occasionally offer some alternative on a northerly wind. at high tide though, and on the right swell, Rag’s Right can offer perhaps some of the thickest, hollowest tubes in south Mentawai. The wave grinds down a section of reef that is famous for two coral heads situated at the kick out point – always in the back of a surfers mind while locked inside the tube.

r a G s l e F t

Rag’s left is a long barreling wave that turns on during large south-west swells. If you are lucky enough to catch Rags at 8 ft or bigger, don’t forget to shoot a photo of the lineup, it is an extraordinary sight, one that you are unlikely to see too often. Rags left is very dependent on swell direction, tide and wind, but when all of these factors fall into place, you could find yourself and just a few of your friends pulling into massive barrels.

t h U n d e r s

Thunders is one of the most consistent breaks in the Mentawai’s and is surfable on all tides. higher tides usually offer racy tube sections over a shallow inside reef shelf breaking close to the island, whilst lower tides offer a forceful shoulder further out the back. In smaller south swells the top section of the reef can turn on offering long hollow barrels. generally Thunders is an excellent option in smaller long period swells and can handle crowds due to there being a number of take off spots.

r o X i e s

Roxies is a fun right-hander that works best in w – Sw swells. It is fairly consistent and very fun wave to surf, and when it gets bigger it also becomes a hollow barrel. Roxies is only 45 minutes to the south of Macaronis Resort, and we frequent this spot on occasions for those chasing after a right-hander. has been called ‘Macas in reverse’, due to the wave being a fun and perfectly peeling right.

r e d n U h t

Rednuht is a solid right-hander that breaks in deep water. The wave is not that long but barrels from take off and dishes up a good bit of adrenalin. This wave requires the right tides and swell direction to work, but when it’s on, it’s on. ask the surf guides for the run down.

F i s h F i n G e r s

fish fingers is the perfect wave for learning to surf. It is located right across the channel from the resort with a nice sandy bottom. It is a soft perfect little peak that peels left and right.

learn to surf or teach the kids with the two soft-top 8ft learner boards available for use free of charge to take out to fish fingers. ask management about lessons from the surf guides.
